The population, including the younger generation, does not have enough information about the concept of corruption. It is not only abuse of official position, giving bribes, receiving bribes, abuse of power, commercial bribery or other illegal use by an official against the legitimate interests of society and the state. With this project, we have the opportunity to teach the population, young people, workers in education, medicine and other actors how to make the right decisions. Here it is important for us to convey preventive measures to all actors in relevant areas. At the same time, it is important to mention the importance of forming resistance to corruption from an early age, so that the younger generation has a negative attitude towards corruption, rejecting any form of its manifestation. At this age, dialogue is very important, discussing the importance of moral and ethical issues in this respect.

In order to raise awareness and develop civic responsibility in their own actions both as citizens and as future professionals this project proposes preventive measures and a systematic approach in each of the above-mentioned areas

To promote information campaigns in the 3 sectors (health, education, agriculture/food safety).
